What's with people thinking it's so much work to not give everyone Admin permissions. http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/833988-how-do-you-punish-the-scalawags?page=5#entry-4404879 Sounds like another bad MSP. He also posts about getting Cryptolocker viruses a lot. hmmm.

Timmy Ho's!!!

Timmy Ho's is the "taste of Canada" to me. Thankfully we've had it "back home" now for a long time. So it is the local coffee place now too. @dominica and I bought our first house right behind the then new Tim Horton's in Geneseo, NY. I would walk to it at night from the house. So awesome to be able to walk to a 24x7 coffee place from home.
-
Love Timmy's
-
I never even realized it was such a national identity until I moved out east where you can not walk for more than 20 minutes in any direction without running into one haha. I grew up on starbucks
-
I've never heard of Timmy's.
-
I don't think I have seen any Tim Hortons (http://www.timhortons.com/us/en/index.php) any farther south than just on the PA. I doubt you have seen in on Virginia at all.

It's spilled over the border now and completely displaced everything else in the US. Radiating out from Buffalo (the breach point, if you will) Tim Horton's is into like eight states now. And wherever it goes it kills everything else. That part of the US far more identifies with Toronto either as being a Toronto suburb directly or just cultural affinity whereas Starbucks is from Seattle and might as well be a completely different region. So Tim Horton's is seen as local, Starbucks is seen as the foreign, big box invader. The northeast likes their stuff local, not imported from the west coast.
Tim Horton's does so well that they can open directly across the street from a Starbucks. That's exactly what they did in Geneseo. Took only about one year for the Starbucks to close and leave town completely!

@scottalanmiller They're also much less expensive than SB - there were nearly riots across eastern Canada when they wanted to raise prices on coffee by more than 10 cents
